Uh, okay. Definitely going for the "limited edition" then. Thanks for letting me avoid this mistake! :-)

To be fair, it makes a $20 subscription only cost $10, so you're essentially only saving $10 by getting it and not the standard version.

Thanks for the input.

Well, you and my son won. Here's what I consider the final version. I had to eliminate some cheese I didn't know was there until I threw it at a Twitch streamer last night cause I wanted to see how people play it. And just modified the excavation a bit.

I tried adding random things to set off bombs, but none of them actually made the level any more fun. But if I go for a straight hard level I have some ideas.

Wow, I just saw you got TheDragonFeeney to play your level. She cheesed the ending of course.

We're fucking built for this shit!
He was just playing an underground Night theme level and it struck me, you could do some really cool levels inspired by 80s slasher flicks. Hidden Thwomps that can't hit you, but still shake the screen, a Boss that you see flashes of here and there throughout the level before you fight him at the end.

There's some serious potential there I think.

You should play Yoshi's Crafted World, which actually had a slasher flick level.

You'd hit one of those tutorial blocks that would just say "Behind You" when a monster popped out of the background.

Yoshi's Crafted World is a really good game if you don't mind Good Feel platformers and just want something that is chill.

Too late. It wouldn't be so bad if they just unlocked all the scavenger hunts off the bat instead of making you repeatedly enter and exit a stage for each one (especially when some stages have what feels like ten of them).

That's actually who my son made it for. I sent it to her before we fixed the cheese. My son loves watching her play because "it's like how Daddy plays, but without all the dying."
We got into watching her after sometime suggested it in this or the SPEEDRUNNING thread.

The first bit of the level with koopa and the bomb tower was something I was experimenting with then when my son rebuilt it he added the excavation bit because he apparently heard her say she loves excavation levels (could have been sarcasm I don't remember it) and that Mario World is her favorite type (which may be true, I think I remember that but I watch a few streamers and it could have been any of them).

He was CRAZY excited she played it.

Feeney is great to watch because she is so positive. A lot of the other mario runners I watch are nice enough people, but they get super salty, which I find tiring

the downside though is that when she does get salty it's still all 'what the flippin heck' like i'm listening to a church camp counselor swear

and like, obviously i get why but it's still kinda annoying and throws me off when i'm watching

Does Feeney do exaggerated reactions and like shout "Nooooo! I got trolled!" and such? My kid watches DGR who is getting on my last nerve and I'd love to offer him an alternative.

yeah her reactions to things seem pretty genuine and not overly played up because she's on stream or anything. she'll get annoyed if something annoying happens but in a way a normal person would

Oh god I laughed out loud at that. It’s definitely sarcasm but I can see where a kid would not pick up on it based on her delivery. That is awesome that she played it though.

She’s extremely chill and doesn’t do troll levels or the whole no-skip super expert rage stuff.

Agreed on the previous points on Feeney being very chill and positive. I love how if a level wasn't totally garbage she'll politely say "That was a nice level," after completing it.

I was going to say DGR was the worst, but then I remembered I actually saw a minute of DashieXP or whatever it is. Loud and obnoxious as gently caress, but that seems to be what the kids are into these days.

My take is that both cam and no-cam can work but what I can't stand is "thanks for the ten bits xxsephirothgoku69xx, thanks for subscribing weednaruto" for minutes on end after every death, so I just follow the youtube channels of the streamers instead where they post edited content

If you don't mind the language barrier, Asuka is a Japanese Mario Maker player that's really good. She's chill, plays a lot of Super Expert-style stuff, and edits her videos to cut out most of the constant repeats if she dies a lot.
